To eat two Big Macs in one go

Now I never eat the top bun of my burgers..

But 2 Big Macs? Easy.

For reference I'm teeny tiny lol

I would love to set aside a day and eat my way through the McDonald's menu to see where my limit is

True. A Big Mac is 508 calories. An M&S ultimate prawn sandwich is 533 calories.

I prefer the quarter pounder w cheese to the big mac. I think I'd rather two of those than a burger and fries. At least the burger has protein

People lose all reason around McDonald's. Most pub lunches or restaurant meals contain way more calories and fat than a Big Mac, and so do many luxury bakery/cafe items. It's just food.

Yeah I don’t get the love for Big Macs. I’d rather have an extra patty than an extra slice of bread.

However I once had two honest burgers with two portions of chips after being chucked on my birthday. I was drunk but still. What you did didn’t even hit the 1200. You can have omelette or soup for dinner and still be in a deficit.

YABU because it was 2 x big macs. If it was 2 x quarter pounders it would have been ok! It's a one off. It's fine!

Yes @Mrsjayy it's a discussion board.
2 Big Macs in one sitting is gross as the OP asked.
Just my opinion.
You all carry on eating 2, good for you.

I Love Big Macs. Love. i could easily eat 2. My go-to tends to be a Big mac and instead of fries I have 3 chicken selects. I hate fries.

I always do two burgers from McDonald’s because I don’t like the fries… it’s fine! Just not everyday 😊

In my early 20s I would have a Big Mac, fries, apple pie and a milkshake, no problem!

I wouldn't touch any of them now, but if presented with it I could probably manage two of the items but not all four.

I still have a big appetite but couldn't eat so much stodge in one go, however like the poster upthread I could eat a whole roast duck!

Is that your contribution to the thread ?

Gross

I'm sure anyone could, just depends how long since they last ate and how hungry they are. People manage three (and more) course meals just fine and in terms of quantity, two big macs can't be bigger than that.

i had one, then won one with the sticker for monopoly mcdonalds

Now I want a Big Mac

No disordered eating, tracking them because I’m on a diet and am pissed off at myself now and can’t have anything else and hungry

I'd say it's disordered eating when you feel guilty for eating them and won't eat anything else even when you're hungry. Having those feelings about food isn't a healthy way of thinking.

Someone without issues about food would just eat something else and not feel guilty about calories.

This is a good attitude to have. I’m the same been binge eating since I was about 11 and then all of my adult life despite being slim for most of it. I try and get it under control and have for the most part - except for during the lockdowns where I went full binge - but even now sometimes I slip up.

It’s best just to shrug it off and do better the next day.

@Willitneverendnow I have a similar calorie allowance to you as I’m short and on a weight loss journey and I’ve had my whole allowance in one meal before too.

Don’t feel bad - it happened. Move on!

Thankfully the McDonald’s in my town is gross so I’m never tempted . Despite all the bad reviews on just eats I gave them a go when I first moved here and soon realised how true the reviews were. The food arrived stone cold and was the worst McDonald’s I’ve had 😂

Yep ...all of it . I used to be very very active with a huge appetite but I developed m.e. ten years ago and now struggle to eat enough to keep up my weight .
So when I actually 'feel' hungry I really take advantage of it !

As a one off it's not a big deal. I've never actually eaten 2 big macs specifically, but I've done worse with other foods like chocolate or cake. Also once I ate a big mac meal + a whole box of mcnuggets + a mcflurry in one go.

Your diet can't be perfect every day! Now and again you just have to have a sofa day and eat some crap.

But I did say it’s the combination of things, big any one of them. And I said that it’s especially the posting about it. It’s such a total non-event. Two Big Macs, and still under her daily calories (though yes, it’s junk and she’s hungry again). It’s just not a big deal enough to run to the internet with it… that’s why I’d suspect her relationship with food isn’t great.

For information, Big Macs are exactly the same size as they've always been.

They have always been made from 2 burger patties and the patties have always been 1.6oz.

Well, it's 30 years ago now, but I regularly used to eat two Quarter Pounders with Cheese (extra mustard, no tomato sauce) and two Large Fries as I drove the hour home from work :) Piggy but I loved it.

Now I really want a burger.

About 20 years ago when I was a poor starving student my friend and I were backpacking in the states on a shoestring. We stopped to eat at a Wendy's in Las Vegas where they had cheeseburgers for about 50cents. I can't tell you how many times we went backwards and forwards ordering more. I must have eaten at least ten 😂it was fantastic

I would eat a Big Mac meal followed by a McFlurry. I don't think that is much different. You got the second Big Mac instead of chips and a McFlurry.
I'm average build. Not overweight but the higher end of "normal bmi".
I think that's fairly normal as long as you aren't doing it every day.
